he's in the white house with president obama. you are part of the administration that's been accused of not using its full political capital to create jobs when it had the chance. how do you respond to that criticism? >> i don't think that's fair. that's coming at the president from the left, and you just heard steven saying he wished they hadn't done anything. i think though it may not have any implication for the election in 2012, historians are going to look back and avoiding the great depression in twa2009 is going be viewed as a huge accomplishment. the economic crisis in 2008 was bigger than the one in 1929 which led us to the first finan bigger share of the economy now than it was then. >> i'm so scared looking forward. we have to figure out in washington how we can fix the right now and look longer term to cutting our debts and deficits. why can't we do both? even more, why can't we do both at the same time? i'm not convinced that washington and party politics will allow us to do -- we have to be juggling a lot of balls.

jessica, president obama could win. congress could come back with the same composition that it has now. what does the president do, as i ask, between election day and the end of the year to protect americans from the fiscal cliff? >> well, there's, obviously, two scenarios. but one where he will not extend the bush tax cuts for the wealthiest americans. so, the fiscal cliff is going to be folded in in some way into renegotiating the tax cuts and how they get extended. and i think he'll say it's a no go. i'm fought going to extend the bush tax cuts. so, either we can negotiate it now in these few remaining weeks before christmas or we can face a government shut down. i think there will be a little bit of chicken game playing at the end of the year. and what most people in washington think will likely happen is they'll negotiate some way to say, here's a broad framework for what both sides want, let's work it out next year. we'll see. >> sheila, i kind of think americans are a little dilutional they are about the economic

do you like barack obama's any better? >> not much. because i don't like the foreign policy since woodrow wilson, you know? because we have become, you know, this policemen of the world. and we're broke. and we have an empire, and just look at what's happening in the middle east today. 11 embassies have been involved in anti-american demonstrations, that people around the world are sick and tired of us telling them what to do and propping up dictators they don't like and prompting these demonstrations. so it's the woodrow wilson idea that we're going to make the world safe for democracy, we're going to fight a world to end all wars, and just look at what's happened. hundreds of millions of people have died, you know, not that that's our fault in our policy, but we have been trapped into believing that we have to be just like the economic planner, the fed at home, overseas, it's a foreign policy that supports an empire that we cannot maintain. it's bad policy and we don't have any money. >> ron paul, it was a pleasure to talk to you. th
